"Eddie Silva and his team at Cornerstone Masonry were exceptional! They removed brick and installed new brick on my home and it looks amazing! They cleaned up each day and were super respectful of my home. They also built a fireplace on my patio that far exceeded my expectations. Eddie kept in constant communication so I would know what to expect at each stage of the project. I am very happy with Cornerstone Masonry and wouldn’t hesitate to hire them for masonry jobs large or small."

"From the initial estimates to the final touches at the conclusion of a day's work, KK and Mr. Garcia performed with efficiency, proficiency and professionalism in this project. I was impressed with his attention to detail in the preparation phase, selection of materials and considerable prep to avert damages to grass, sprinkler system, in place masonry, fencing, wood gate and brick work of house, using fabric and stone, and in the workmanship exhibited by his work crew, with meticulous attention to a professionally finished product, using the latest materials and technology and a crew that understands the difference between doing a job and a job well done. I have no hesitation or reservation in recommending Mr. Garcia's firm for any homeowner needing his services. Both of the photos I planned to upload are "too large and can't be uploaded." Too bad. They are outstanding examples of how a 5' by 60' concrete walkway should look."

Whether you’re installing brick siding over a traditionally-framed home or you’re using genuine brick construction to build, the biggest downside of a brick house is the higher cost you’ll pay for the materials and labor. Real brick construction also means your home build will take longer, as it’s more time-consuming to construct brick walls than it is to frame out your home.
Yes, you can limewash surfaces other than brick. Plaster, stone, stucco, and concrete can all also be limewashed. Any porous surface that will absorb the wash is a good candidate for limewash, although it won’t help much with waterproofing. If you choose to limewash over paint, you’ll need to prep before applying it to avoid a powdery, chalky finish. Shiny surfaces like metal or glass can’t absorb limewash, so it’s not suited for these.
In most cases, painting your brick house is a fine idea that can open up new aesthetic possibilities. However, the paint can slightly shorten the life span of brick, especially if moisture gets trapped underneath the paint layer. Once you paint, you’ll have to keep up with maintenance to avoid flaking and blisters.
Painted exterior brick does not usually need sealing. Brick is a porous material, so you don’t want to apply a sealant that could trap moisture inside the bricks and cause erosion and structural damage. The risk of moisture-induced damage after sealing is higher in colder climates where trapped moisture can expand if it freezes. On the other hand, it makes sense to seal really old brick or kitchen backsplashes, where moisture from cooking can weaken the brick.
On average, a quality exterior brick stain can last between 10 and 20 years, and sometimes even longer. While it will look its best for a minimum of three to five years, its total lifespan depends on several factors. These include the quality and type of stain used, the condition of the brick, and the thoroughness of the surface preparation, such as proper cleaning. Following the manufacturer's application instructions and applying a sealant as a final step is also crucial. The stain's longevity can be affected by your location, climate, and the brick's exposure to harsh weather, high traffic, and other elements. Over time, the stain may begin to fade or look dingy due to weathering, erosion, dirt, and debris. Compared to paint, brick stain generally has a longer lifespan.
